From then until today, crankbait lures are more popular than ever and the popularity keeps increasing. The special thing about the crankbait lure is its movement, and how it is made. There is a "lip" that points downward which is mounted on the front. The angle and size of the lip affects both movement and depth.When it is pulled through the water it drag itself down and keeps itself there. At this point, the body of the crankbait shakes as if it is "posessed".In fish language this means "Please come and take me!"
